Kirated Pet Photography - Portland, OR

Member since Jan 2022

Kira Chen specializes in fine art pet photography -- her style is deeply rooted in the film (analog) world, as well as in her painting and sculpture work. After obtaining her Bachelors’ in Fine Arts and Biology, Kira moved to Manhattan to pursue a doctorate and then to Portland, Oregon for residency. She has since been working with photography clients in the Pacific Northwest. She loves the tangibility of print and works with small businesses to produce custom heirloom art products for her clients. Her photographic style can be described as organic, genuine, and timeless.

An avid volunteer at animal rescues and wildlife rehabilitation centers, Kira has worked with a variety of both domestic and wild animals. Her love for animals, experience in fine arts, and background in scientific academia lend her a unique perspective and style for pet photography. Her specialty is documenting beautiful portraits and capturing the heartfelt bond between pets and their owners.

How did you hone your craft?

Lots of photographing, in several different niches (weddings, portraits, etc.)! I've also worked with animals at shelters and wildlife rehabilitation centers. In college, I double majored in fine arts and biology, and learned from incredible art mentors who helped me develop my painting, sculptural, and photographic skills.

What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?

In terms of photography, the number one most important thing is quality of light. Try to take photos either outdoors in natural lighting, or next to a big window!

What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!

Fun fact: I almost became a veterinarian, which is why I have a lot of experience with different types of animals!
